A person can be killed instantly through many different means. Gunshots to the brain, being crushed by immense weight, being crushed by smaller weights moving at high speeds, high speed collisions with hard surfaces.
As we know it, to be killed painlessly, is to be killed instantly.
If you instantly destroy a person’s entire brain then they died without pain.
Yet the most effective ways of instantly destroying someone’s entire brain are considered ihumane.
Like letting someone die of an untreatable disease but giving them so many pain meds they can’t feel anything is “humane” but shooting them in the brainstem or destroying the entire brain isn’t.
If instantly killing someone by smashing their head with a massive rock, or shooting them in the brain stem is inhumane, then humans only consider it “humane” if it doesn’t leave a mess.
Obviously I’ve left out a lot of different ways to die, be they slowly or instantaneous, but that list is massive.
But I’d much rather die messily yet painlessly than painfully yet “pretty”
If you evacuate your bowels when you die, then no method of death is not messy.
Also was this reposted or did the comments just get nuked? 🤔
Does it count as painless (a.k.a instant death) if I get drugs that disable my nerve system and some sadist starts attempting to kill by torture?
